4.3.5 Quick-Releases
Check to see that the front and rear wheel
and seat post quick-release levers are
properly adjusted and in the CLOSE position.
See Section 7.7+ 7.8 for details.
WARNING: Riding with an improperly
adjusted wheel quick-release can
cause the wheel to wobble or
disengage from the bicycle, which can
cause damage to the bicycle or serious
injury.
4.3.6 Handlebar and saddle alignment
Are the saddle and handlebar stem correctly
in line with the bike’s top tube and tight
enough so that you can’t twist them out of
alignment?
4.3.7 Handlebar ends
Are the handlebar grips secure and in good
condition? If not, replace them. Are the
handlebar ends plugged? If not, plug them
before you ride.
You are now ready to safely ride your Lafree.
However, we suggest that you take a few
moments to review the following chapters on
riding tips and safety, especially if you have
not ridden a bicycle in a long time.
